He led Judy into another great. room, with three tall windows over looking a garden. It was quite bare, with a polished floor, At one end was a raised platform with a full-sized grand piano on it. There was no other furniture. The walls were pale yellow, hung with tapestries.

She looked out on the garden below, but she did not see it. Somehow she seemed to ace a picture of a place among grey-green mountains which she felt sure must be Alan Sterne's little house in Maine.
